Make-A-Wish North Dakota

Make-A-Wish North Dakota Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses in North Dakota. Join us in bringing hope and joy to a child today!

Make-A-Wish America was founded in 1980 when Chris Greicius, a 7-year-old boy from Phoenix Arizona with leukemia, had a heartfelt wish of becoming a police officer. A group of officers from the Arizona Department of Public Safety granted his wish by giving him a custom-made uniform, helmet, badge and a helicopter ride. The young boy’s delight in having his wish granted inspired the group to form t

he organization, which would grant the special wishes of other children. The organization has now grown to 65 chapters in the United States and granted over 250,000 wishes to very deserving children.

This Memorial Day, Make‑A‑Wish North Dakota pauses to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We remember their courage, their selflessness, and the families who carry their legacy forward.

Summer is our busiest season for granting wishes across North Dakota—but it’s also our slowest time for donations.

While school is out and families are on the move, the need doesn’t slow down for kids facing critical illness. More wishes mean more hope, strength, and joy when it’s needed most.
Your summer donation helps ensure every eligible child in North Dakota receives their wish—without delay. Together, we can keep hope moving forward, all summer long.

💙 Give today. Grant a wish. Make this a true Summer of Wishes.

Jakob Pogreba, owner of Detailing Division in Mapleton, stocked us up through a charity cruise night earlier this month along with Velocity Ghost and Originals Car Club.
